Anfang 2020 kommt es in Deutschland zu einem Medizinskandal: Zahlreiche Frauen berichten von Komplikationen bei ihren Geburtseinleitungen – teilweise kommt es zu fatalen Folgen. Im Mittelpunkt des Skandals steht ein Medikament mit dem Namen Cytotec. Zusammen mit Professor Wolfgang Henrich sprechen wir darüber, was damals genau passiert ist. Als Direktor der Geburtsklinik an der Berliner Charité hat er Zehntausende Neugeborene begleitet. Seiner Meinung nach tragen vor allem gierige Pharmaunternehmen die Schuld an den Vorfällen. Von ihm wollen wir wissen: Hat sich die Situation gebessert und sind Geburtseinleitungen mittlerweile sicher?

Dr. George Delgado, family physician and author, discusses the March for Life in Washington, D.C., and the ongoing cultural and legal battles over abortion in the U.S., particularly in Missouri. He explains the abortion pill reversal protocol he developed, which allows women who have taken Mifepristone—but not Misoprostol—to use progesterone to potentially save the pregnancy. Delgado highlights the medical and social risks of unmonitored chemical abortions and shares that over 7,000 lives have been saved through the protocol. He emphasizes the need for awareness and regulation amid the proliferation of mail-order abortion pills. #AbortionPillReversal #MarchForLife #ProLife #ChemicalAbortion #DrGeorgeDelgado #MissouriAbortionLaw

Misoprostol, as an E1 prostaglandin, is primarily used in obstetrics for cervical ripening (when the Bishop Score is under 6) and/or for labor INDUCTION (to begin labor). IV oxytocin is the principal agent used to augmentlabor, as needed, once labor has begun. In the US, misoprostol is not typically used after 4-6 cm cervical dilation. However, in a patient who requires augmentation,and who declines Pitocin while asking or oral misoprostol, can that be used? Is that evidence-based? The data may surprise you.

Follow along with slideshow visuals HERE. ENCORE ALERT! The Feminist Buzzkills are out on a summer break! But, no need to fear – we're leaving y'all with some extra brain juice to keep you company while we're offline. We're dropping an ENCORE POD EPISODE of when we collabed with the iconic “Boom! Lawyered” hosts Imani Gandy and Jess Pieklo IN DC and broke down SCOTUS' Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic arguments back in April. It went a little something like this… ATTENTION BUZZKILLAHSSSSS! WE DID A LIVE THING – in DC! Yep. Your “Feminist Buzzkills” joined forces with the “Boom! Lawyered” pod for an epic live show! After getting word that SCOTUS was hearing a case that could result in eliminating any healthcare provider from Medicaid payments if they provide abortion, we geared up for battle for one super-sized show with the amazing “Boom! Lawyered” hosts Imani Gandy (Rewire Editor-at-Large) and Jess Pieklo (Rewire Senior Vice President, Executive Editor.) We break down what this case means, and fill you in on all the outrageous tricks clown lawmakers across the country are playing trying to destroy access to reproductive care. It was a packed show full of rage and shenanigans and the DC crowd LOVED IT!  This episode unpacks the arguments in Medina v Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, a case that could upend Medicaid beneficiaries ability to enforce their rights under the public benefit program all because conservatives hate abortion. We get into the history of efforts to kick Planned Parenthood out of the Medicaid program, the bad faith arguments made by conservatives to the Court as they try to do so again, and how a bad decision in the case could impact way more than access to abortion. Recorded LIVE at the Black Cat in DC, we gotta give a huge shout out and special thanks to the Black Cat crew for making the space for our loud asses AND for everyone who showed up! Tune in for the legal brilliance, the laughs, the knowledge, and some actions you can take to be the change you wanna see in this world.  Times are heavy, but knowledge is power, y'all. We gotchu.  Scared? Got Questions about the continued assault on your reproductive rights? THE FBK LINES ARE OPEN!

Dr. Rachel Pfeifle joins us to discuss her 2024 AJVR Resident Award-winning research examining how misoprostol affects the equine fecal microbiome—a study that elegantly bridges pharmacology with microbial ecology.Rachel's research journey reflects the perfect blend of personal interest and mentor guidance, as she explains how her desire for clinically applicable research merged with her advisors' ongoing pharmacokinetic studies. The collaboration that followed involved specialists from multiple institutions, demonstrating how contemporary veterinary research increasingly requires diverse expertise to tackle complex questions.What stands out most in our conversation is Rachel's emphasis on persistence through research challenges. Now a faculty member at the University of Georgia, she offers valuable advice to veterinary residents hoping to publish: develop the grit to weather inevitable setbacks and see projects through to completion. Her journey from resident to award winner to faculty researcher illustrates how recognition can fuel continued scientific curiosity and commitment.We're proud to showcase exceptional early-career researchers like Rachel through our AVMA Journal Awards program, which recognizes outstanding student, intern, and resident authors. Want to support the next generation of veterinary researchers? Consider nominating a promising author for next year's awards by March 15th, 2025.

In this episode, Joe interviews Kat Murti: executive director of Students for Sensible Drug Policy (SSDP), the largest nationwide network of students fighting to replace the War on Drugs with policies rooted in evidence, compassion, and human rights. She talks about how she became interested in drug policy, which not surprisingly aligns with the many problems of The War on Drugs: how it's a war on people, personal liberty, and our communities; how laws are not effective in enforcing morality; and how getting in trouble with the law often incentivizes more illegal activity. We all know that our current system doesn't work and that the drug war no longer appeals to most reasonable people, but how can we move towards sensible policy? She discusses previous successes (both at SSDP and before), and some of their current projects, from the work they're doing with fentanyl strip training and distribution, to education work at festivals and their program, “Just Say Know.” She talks about: How drug policy isn't going to look the same everywhere and shouldn't: How do we effectively use different models in different places together for the benefit of everyone? The dangers of forcing drug users through drug courts and treatment centers The repealing of Oregon's Measure 110 and how it's unfair to blame its failure on problems that already existed in the state Their new focus on how the War on Drugs specifically affects women and reproductive rights, inspired by Louisiana recently scheduling Mifepristone and Misoprostol and much more. The SSDP's biggest battle now is fighting the DEA's attempted scheduling of DOI and DOC, two compounds that have been used in research for decades and pose no real threat to safety – which would drastically derail a ton of research. They just completed a 10-day hearing with the DEA. Watch Joe and Hamilton Morris' breakdown here, and stay tuned to SSDP and PT for updates.  For links, head to the show notes page.

Läkemedlet misoprostol har sedan länge använts i Sverige och internationellt för att sätta igång förlossningar. Det finns två olika beredningar av läkemedlet som används vid igångsättning, tabletten Cytotec som man löser i vatten och ger att svälja, eller en färdig tablett, Angusta, som sväljs. Nu publiceras resultaten av en svensk studie där man undersökt om de två varianterna är likvärdiga vad gäller säkerhet och effektivitet, en viktig fråga eftersom Angusta kostar 43 gånger mer än Cytotec. Kan vården göra besparingar, utan att göra avkall på patientsäkerhet? Svar ja, säger vår gäst Elin Svensk, specialistläkare i obstetrik och gynekologi, och doktorand vid Institutionen för klinisk forskning och utbildning på Södersjukhuset, Karolinska Institutet och en av studiens huvudförfattare.Hör när Elin Svensk berättar om hur studien gått till, vad man undersökt och hur man kommit fram till att det finns goda skäl för vården att använda Cytotec i vattenlösning vid igångsättning. Avsnittet är i samarbete med MAM Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The reclassification of misoprostol and mifepristone is a public health crisis that it will delay essential care, particularly in emergencies like postpartum hemorrhaging, which could have life-threatening consequences. Hospitals are already pulling these drugs from obstetric carts, raising concerns about rapid access to life-saving treatments.

Today, people across New Orleans and all of Louisiana are remembering Sybil Morial, who died this week at 91. While often remembered as the wife of New Orleans' first Black mayor, Dutch Morial, and mother to two-term mayor, Marc Morial, she was also a civil rights icon in her own right. The Times Picayune/The Advocate's Stephanie Grace tells us about Morial's role in fighting discrimination at universities, advocating for voter registration, and her family's history in the New Orleans area.Misoprostol is a life-saving drug, often used to stop postpartum hemorrhaging. But last May, Gov. Jeff Landry signed legislation to reclassify the drug as a “controlled and dangerous substance.” On Oct. 1t, the law will take effect.The Louisiana Illuminator's Lorena O'Neil tells us why doctors and pharmacists are concerned as they look for new ways to treat hemorrhages without breaking the law. While Louisiana's electoral votes have gone to the Republican presidential candidate in every election since 2000, not every Republican in the state always votes on party lines – at least not anymore. The organization, Republican Voters Against Trump represents GOP party supporters from across the country who have vowed not to cast ballots for Trump in November's elections. ___ Stan Foster of Covington and Eric Brownfield of Denham Springs, are members of the organization. They tell us why they are not backing Trump this time around – and why they're going public with their decision. Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by [host].

Can safeguarding women's health and holding the FDA accountable hinge on a controversial Supreme Court decision? Today, we dive into the profound implications of the Supreme Court's recent ruling on the abortion pill, joined by Dr. Ingrid Skop. We'll address the critical lawsuit where pro-life doctors challenged the FDA, arguing that the removal of essential safeguards around abortion drugs like Mifepristone and Misoprostol posed severe risks to women. Dr. Skop brings her medical expertise to the table, outlining the dangers these drugs present when used without medical supervision. We'll also explore how states like Missouri, Kansas, and Idaho are stepping up to represent affected women, pushing for greater FDA accountability.Moving beyond the courtroom, our conversation takes a deep look at the ethical and cultural landscape of abortion in the United States. Dr. Skopp provides a compelling narrative on the need for a national discourse about the inherent value of human life. We scrutinize the cultural ramifications since Roe v. Wade, the demographic crisis tied to low fertility rates, and the ethical pitfalls in treating pregnancy as a medical condition. Engaging with the historical context of euthanasia in Europe, we draw parallels to the current U.S. scenario, emphasizing the broader societal consequences of failing to protect the unborn. Join us for a thought-provoking episode that challenges conventional healthcare narratives and underscores the importance of supporting both unborn children and their mothers.

Julie Burkhart, President of Wellspring Health Access, one of the organizations behind the Wyoming District Court Case who last June successfully blocked a Wyoming law from going into effect that would have banned abortion medication in the state – released the following statement responding to a Louisiana bill lawmakers approved today that would make the state the first to categorize mifepristone and misoprostol as controlled dangerous substances, criminalizing possession of the two abortion medications: “It is appalling that Louisiana lawmakers have approved a bill recategorizing Mifepristone and Misoprostol as controlled substances in the state, especially given both drugs are used safely by hundreds of thousands of women each year to terminate their pregnancies. It is now one step closer to dangerously becoming law.  “Additionally, these drugs are not illicit or addictive drugs, and have other medical uses.  The passage of this amendment to reclassify these two safe medications as controlled substances, on the level of heroin and methamphetamine, will have a chilling effect on doctors, patients and undoubtedly adversely impact maternal health outcomes in Louisiana.  “Instead of pushing to criminalize those who are helping people access safe, legal medication abortion, the state legislature should instead focus on pressing issues that would actually benefit the well-being of those they swear an oath to represent.” Julie Burkhart is a national abortion rights leader, former senior advisor to slain Wichita-abortion provider Dr. George Tiller, and the only person in the country who has opened an abortion clinic in a state where it had been banned.Ms. Burkhart is currently the president of Wellspring Health Access which has a clinic in Casper, Wyoming and co-owner of Hope Clinic in Granite City, Illinois, a nationally trusted leader in abortion services since 1974.

It's Thursday, May 30th, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark India imprisoned 70 Christians Officials in the North Indian state of Uttar Pradesh are holding nearly 70 Christians in jail. They faced arrest under the state's 2020 anti-conversion law. Authorities in the area stormed church meetings and arrested pastors on false charges of forcefully converting Hindus. Once imprisoned, it is very difficult to get Christians out since officials often deny bail applications.  Please pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ in India, ranked 11th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian.  In Matthew 5:11-12, Jesus said, “Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in Heaven.” 20,000 French Christians March for Jesus Thousands of people joined the March for Jesus over the weekend in cities across France. The motto of the march was “Lets bear witness publicly and in unity about our faith in Jesus Christ.” Organizers wanted it to be “a joyful and peaceful testimony of a living faith that wants to touch hearts, through the praise, prayer and proclamation of the Word of God which are at the heart of the march.”  Remarkably, 20,000 marchers turned out in Paris, including many young people.  250,000 dead babies in England and Wales New data shows over 250,000 babies were killed by abortion in England and Wales in 2022.  That's the highest on record and an increase of 17% over 2021. The Society for the Protection of Unborn Children noted, “In 2022, medical abortion (drugs/pills) accounted for 86% of all abortions, up from 48% in 2012. Abortions taking place entirely at home increased by 9% between 2021 and 2022, amounting to 61% of all abortions.” 40% of British Christians do not evangelize Also in British news, a recent survey found many Christians in the U.K. don't want to talk about their faith with others. The Institute for the Impact of Faith in Life found nearly 40% of Christians agreed with the statement, “I prefer not to tell people about my faith or religious belief.”  However, exclusionist Christians were much more likely to talk about their faith. The survey identified only 28% of Christians as exclusionist, those who say their faith is the only true faith.  Speaking of the name of Jesus, the Apostle Peter said in Acts 4:12, “There is no other name under Heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” Louisiana bans using force or fraud to give pregnant woman abortion pill In the U.S., Republican Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry signed the Abortion by Fraud Criminalization Act into law last week. The measure bans people from using force or fraud to get a pregnant woman to take an abortion-inducing drug. The law also makes such drugs only available through prescription.  Republican state Sen. Thomas Pressly sponsored the legislation. The Office of the Governor noted that Pressly was inspired to do this after his sister was “unknowingly poisoned by her former husband while she was pregnant by the abortion-inducing drug Misoprostol.” Good outcome for Christian who toppled Satanist statue In January, authorities in Iowa charged a Christian Navy veteran with a felony hate crime.  The month before, Michael Cassidy had toppled a Satanist statue that was in the state's capitol building.  He faced up to five years in jail if convicted. But, last Friday, officials dropped the felony charge. Cassidy posted on Facebook, “Not today, Satan. Pleased to announce the Iowa District Attorney just dropped their absurd felony hate crime charge and instead offered a deferred judgement misdemeanor (a fine, no jail time, nothing permanent on my record), which I accepted. Many thanks to my family, my lawyers, my community, and the many Christians who have supported us. … When Christians stick together, we can, and we will, win.”  God is lining up six planets And finally, God has more celestial events in store this year. In recent months, many experienced a solar eclipse and a rare display of the Northern Lights.  Next, six planets are set to align in the early morning hours of June 3rd. CBS News reports, “During the solar spectacle, the orbits of Jupiter, Mercury, Uranus, Mars, Neptune, and Saturn will bring the six planets to the same side of the sun. The planets won't form an actual straight line in space, because of the elliptical shapes of their orbits ... but from some angles on Earth, they will appear to be aligned.”  Observers will need a telescope or powerful binoculars. And the East Coast will have the best view of the planetary parade. Psalm 19:1 says, “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.”  Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Thursday, May 30th, in the year of our Lord 2024. Subscribe by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

How does anyone make sense of abortion access these days? We sat down with All Options Pregnancy Resource Center in Bloomington, Indiana to talk about what's changed since Indiana's full abortion ban went into effect last August. Local abortion funds like All Options do a lot, but they can't talk to clients about self-managed abortion, even though the World Health Organization says it's safe and effective.  We learn about the ways folks are getting access to abortion pills, what to expect from a self-managed abortion and about the case in the Supreme Court now - whether the pill Mifepristone will still be legal to use for abortions, even in states where abortion care is protected.

The Majority Report with Sam Seder

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday, the first of 2024! She speaks with Dr. Sydney Calkin, senior lecturer in the School of Geography at Queen Mary University in London, to discuss her recent book Abortion Pills Go Global: Reproductive Freedom across Borders. Then, she speaks with Francis Boyle, professor of international law at the University of Illinois, to discuss South Africa filing a case against Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) against Israel over its actions in Gaza. First, Emma runs through updates on the US taking actions against the Houthis over the conflict in the Red Sea, Israel's mounting death toll in Gaza, the US' reaction to South Africa's charge of Genocide against Israel, the murder of a New Jersey Imam, Ilhan Omar's attempt to block Saudi and UAE arms sales, the Epstein files, Donald Trump's corruption, Lina Khan's FTC, the DOJ vs. Texas, and DeSantis anti-vax administration, before parsing through Joy Reid's recent interview with a Palestinian American member of the Biden Admin who resigned in protest. Sydney Calkin then joins, diving right into general perceptions of the illegal abortion industry, with generally violent pictures coming to mind, and how that contrasts with the reality of countries where black market access to abortion pills like Mifepristone and Misoprostol allows women to rely on restricted drugs to perform generally safe, at home abortions. Calkin then walks through the role of the abortion pill in a post-Roe v. Wade United States, playing a major role in states both with and without abortion access, before expanding the picture as she looks to the pill's role in recent reforms in Poland, the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. Next, Sydney walks Emma through her particular interest in the illegal cross-border dealing of this drug, before analyzing the central role it played in redefining what abortion could look like, and wrapping up with a quick assessment of the continuing fight for reproductive rights. Francis Boyle then runs through a quick background on the UN's International Court of Justice and the criminal suit South Africa has brought against Israel over their genocide of Palestinians, exploring his personal history as the first lawyer to win a case on genocide at this court, and why precedent suggests South Africa has a strong chance of winning. After parsing through the difference between the ICJ and the ICC – the latter of which has a history of failing Palestinians – and what this suit means for both Israel and South Africa, Francis and Emma discuss John Kirby's diminishment of the case, and explore the active complicity of the US government per the ICJ's statutes. Boyle wraps up with a quick analysis of the relevant legal text and assesses the expected timeframe of the case. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder as they tackle the recently released Epstein documents, including a feature of fan-favorite Alan Dershowitz, watch Pope of the Jews go after President Gay, and listen to Dan from Oceanside discuss the future of Baby Boomer politics. Dave from Jamaica calls in for his takes on Ben Shapiro's attacks on former Harvard president Claudine Gay, Tim Pool revises Nikki Haley's Civil War revisionism, and the MR Crew reflects on the absurdity of caring about citation practices as a proxy for genocide, plus, your calls and IMs!

GDP Script/ Top Stories for Oct 25th Publish Date: Oct 24th Hennsler: 15 From the Henssler Financial Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Wednesday, October 25th and happy 83rd birthday to Bobby Knight. ***BOBBY KNIGHT*** I'm Bruce Jenkins and here are your top stories presented by Peggy Slappy Properties. Body of Man Who Jumped Off Jet Ski Recovered in Lake Lanier Vehicle emissions inspector from Gwinnett County pleads guilty to falsifying thousands of test results Study suggests Daily cup of tea or coffee can keep you stronger in old age Plus, my conversation with Leah McGrath from Ingle Markets on Cottage Cheese. All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: PEGGY SLAPPY STORY 1: Body of Man Who Jumped Off Jet Ski Recovered in Lake Lanier A tragic incident occurred at Lake Lanier when Walter Guardado, who went missing on Saturday after jumping off a jet ski, was found dead. Guardado was at East Bank Park with his girlfriend when he jumped off his jet ski and attempted to swim back to shore. His girlfriend couldn't locate him, leading to a search by Gwinnett County Fire and Emergency Services and the Hall County Fire Department over the weekend. On Monday, divers from the Georgia Department of Natural Resources located Guardado approximately 20 feet underwater, confirming his drowning.   STORY 2: Vehicle emissions inspector from Gwinnett County pleads guilty to falsifying thousands of test results Mehboobhusain Malik, a vehicle emissions inspector from Gwinnett County, Georgia, has pleaded guilty to a Clean Air Act violation for conducting thousands of fraudulent emissions tests. Malik used a simulator to manipulate the results of emissions tests for vehicles that couldn't pass legitimately. He carried out these fraudulent tests at multiple locations across the metro Atlanta area. The case underscores the collaboration between local, state, and federal agencies in upholding and enforcing laws aimed at safeguarding human health and air quality. Malik is set to be sentenced in January and faces legal consequences for his actions. The investigation involved the Georgia Environmental Protection Division and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Criminal Investigation Division.       STORY 3: Daily cup of tea or coffee can keep you stronger in old age: study Drinking coffee and tea in midday may reduce the likelihood of physical frailty in later life, according to a study by the National University of Singapore. The research, involving 12,000 participants aged 45 to 74, found that caffeine was key to these benefits. Those who consumed four or more cups of coffee daily had the best results. However, drinking black and green tea also showed benefits. Coffee and tea accounted for the majority of caffeine intake in the group. The study concluded that higher caffeine intake was associated with lower odds of physical frailty, regardless of the source of caffeine. It suggested that further research is needed to identify the exact ingredients and mechanisms behind this association. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

We'll be right back Break 2: M.O.G. – TOM WAGES OBITS – ESOG STORY 4: Study says new dads should be screened for depression A study from the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC) suggests that new fathers should be screened for postpartum depression. The research discovered that 30% of American dads screened had postpartum depression, and experts emphasize the link between mothers' and fathers' mental health. Fathers were screened using the same mental health tool as mothers, and the UIC study showed higher rates of depression than previous studies, possibly due to the participants facing structural racism and prejudice. Lead author Dr. Sam Wainwright highlights the importance of fathers taking care of their mental health for the sake of their partners, babies, and themselves.   STORY 5: Many women can't access miscarriage drug because it's also used for abortions Many women experiencing pregnancy loss, including miscarriages, are unable to access mifepristone, a drug that could ease the process. In the United States, mifepristone is primarily associated with abortion and heavily regulated. Misoprostol, a less effective drug, is often the alternative. The two-drug protocol combining mifepristone and misoprostol is recommended for miscarriage management, but just 1% of patients receive it. Multiple factors, including regulatory, cultural, and political influences, limit access to mifepristone, depriving many patients of better care for miscarriages and potentially complicating their situations. Efforts to make mifepristone more available for miscarriage patients face opposition from anti-abortion groups. Advocates are calling for an official indication for mifepristone in miscarriage management to improve access and legitimization. We'll be back in a moment Break 3: LAWRENCVILLE EVENTS – INGLES 8  STORY 6: LEAH MCGRATH And now here is my conversation with Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on cottage cheese.

Typically, People magazine publishes stories lamenting reduced access to abortion that has resulted for some women since the overturning of Roe v. Wade. But earlier this month, the magazine published a heartbreaking story lamenting an abortion.   Las Vegas mom Tamika Thomas unexpectedly lost her two preborn babies after a local pharmacy wrongfully gave her an abortifacient. Having undergone in vitro fertilization, Thomas was picking up pills that she thought were going to help kickstart her pregnancy. Instead, the pharmacist, failing to decipher the doctor's note, prescribed Misoprostol, a drug used to abort preborn children within the first 10 weeks of pregnancy. Unaware she had received Misoprostol, Thomas took the pills and lost her children.   This heartbreaking story is not about victims of bad handwriting. Rather, these two children were the victims of bad ideas and our culture's upside-down thinking about women, the pre-born, and the purpose of medicine.

Resources mentioned in this episode: IVF Medication News Article A Las Vegas woman undergoing IVF to expand her family was mistakenly given abortion medication — not fertility medication — by her local pharmacy, terminating her pregnancy in its early stages. “They just killed my baby,” Tamika Thomas told 8 News Now. “Both my babies, because I transferred two embryos.” The mom of 4 had been undergoing in vitro fertilization, a lengthy process in which fertilized embryos are implanted in the uterus to lead to a successful pregnancy, according to the Mayo Clinic. She and her husband had turned to IVF after having her Fallopian tubes removed, and they had paid for the expensive procedure out-of-pocket. Thomas had just had two embryos transferred when she went to pick up medication to help her body “think it's pregnant.” But pharmacy technicians at her North Las Vegas CVS gave her Misoprostol instead, which is used for “medication abortion,” according to the National Institute of Health. The Lasting Trauma of Infertility- New York Times Newsletter Article by Regina Townsend, founder of the Broken Brown Egg- Infertility website & community. “Infertility changes how you see yourself and the world. Somewhere along the journey, many of us stop feeling as though it is something that is happening to us, but instead begin to believe that it is a part of who we are. You become used to living in a constant state of fluctuating despair and hope. And this doesn't turn off when and if you get pregnant. It doesn't turn off when you hear or see the heartbeat. My son is 3. I'm still trying to turn it off. Six months into motherhood, I felt as if I was in quicksand. I'd gotten through infertility, gotten past a failed adoption, braced my way through I.V.F. and a C-section. I should have felt invincible, but instead, I was numb. I felt as if the other shoe would drop at any moment. I had to pay for the victory that was my son, didn't I? That was the routine of the roller coaster infertility had been for us. No success without swift defeat.” The Baby Heartbeat Doppler Sonia Referred to: Easy To Use, High Performance Baby Heartbeat Monitor .

In this episode of The Gender Justice Brief podcast, Erin Hart, Communications Director at Gender Justice, hosts a discussion with Jess Braverman, Legal Director at Gender Justice, and Minnesota State Senator Erin Maye Quade, Special Projects Advisor. This episode focuses on the complex topic of FDA medication abortion lawsuits and their potential impact on reproductive rights. Senator Maye Quade delved into the importance of Mifepristone, a key component in medication abortion alongside Misoprostol, emphasizing their combined efficacy, with Mifepristone boasting a remarkable 99.6% success rate for safe pregnancy termination.  Jess Braverman navigated the intricate FDA timeline related to Mifepristone, dating back to its approval in 2000, which sparked legal battles over the years. Recent pivotal rulings in April 2023 emerged from Texas and Washington, stirring controversy regarding Mifepristone's accessibility. Notably, the Supreme Court temporarily intervened, pausing any regulatory changes during the ongoing legal saga.  The conversation dissected the August ruling from the Fifth Circuit Court, which pertained to doctors' "standing" in the case and its potential impact on Mifepristone's availability. Ultimately, the legal battle carries far-reaching implications on reproductive rights, extending beyond Minnesota's borders.  Erin also addressed the peculiar claim that doctors suffer an "aesthetic injury" when patients opt for abortions.  ### Visit the "Gender Justice" Website here and "Unrestrict Minnesota" here.

The earliest studies of misoprostol's use in cervical ripening and labor induction were done by South American investigators, who reported their experience using intravaginal misoprostol. This was published in the Lancet in 1992. Despite its widespread incorporation into obstetrical practice, there's still some lack of uniformity in its administration. Is there a cumulative maximum dose allowed for cervical ripening? What about time… is there a maximal amount of time in which misoprostol can be used? Is that 12 hours, 18 hours, 24 hours? In this episode we will review important misoprostol's FDA label information, summarize position statement from the ACOG and AWHONN, and discuss issues with “scoring” the 100mcg tablet to give a 25mcg dose. And of course, we will summarize the important peer-reviewed data regarding “maximum vaginal cumulative doses” of this medication for cervical ripening/labor induction.

The open-top tractor-trailer was traveling north on SR-165 in Columbiana County when the accident occurred, CBS News reported. Driver Phillip Falck, 74, went off the right side of the road and hit a ditch and a utility pole before overturning, the outlet said. Officers who responded found the truck “on its side,’” per the Ohio State Highway Patrol. The local fire department and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency also responded. It was decided that the 20,000 pounds of spilled soil was contained and did not threaten any waterways. Falck sustained minor injuries and was cited for operating a vehicle without reasonable control, WFMJ reported. The soil onboard was being transported away from East Palestine, where a Norfolk Southern train derailed on Feb. 3, releasing multiple hazardous substances into the surrounding area. Residents were evacuated, and thousands of fish reportedly died from exposure to the toxins. More than two months later, the process of removing contaminated soil and water from the site remains ongoing. On Monday, state officials said approximately 11.4 million gallons of wastewater had been hauled out of the area, in addition to 19,900 tons of soil. A new health clinic, the East Liverpool City Hospital East Palestine Clinic, also opened in the area on Monday. It will replace the temporary assessment clinic that opened in the wake of the derailment. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/manhattan-da-alvin-bragg-sues-rep-jim-jordan-trump-indictment-subpoena Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg sues Rep. Jim Jordan over Trump indictment subpoenas Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg on Tuesday filed a federal lawsuit against Rep. Jim Jordan, alleging that the Republican lawmaker is trying to wage a campaign of intimidation over his prosecution of former President Donald Trump. In his lawsuit, the Democratic D.A. said he's taking legal action "in response to an unprecedently brazen and unconstitutional attack by members of Congress on an ongoing New York State criminal prosecution and investigation of former President Donald J. Trump." Bragg is asking a judge to invalidate subpoenas that Jordan, the chair of the House Judiciary Committee, has or plans to issue as part of an investigation of Bragg's handling of the Trump case. "The Manhattan D.A.'s Office focuses on the law and the evidence, not political gamesmanship or threats. We look forward to presenting our case in court to enjoin enforcement of the subpoena." The case is assigned to U.S. District Mary Kay Vyskocil, a Trump appointee who previously served as a federal bankruptcy court judge. In recent weeks, the Judiciary Committee issued a subpoena seeking testimony from a former prosecutor, Mark Pomerantz, who previously oversaw the Trump investigation. The committee has also sought documents and testimony about the case from Bragg and his office. Bragg has rejected those requests. Trump was indicted late last month on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to hush-money payments made during the 2016 presidential campaign to bury allegations that he had extramarital sexual encounters. The 2024 presidential contender has denied wrongdoing and pleaded not guilty at an arraignment in Manhattan last week. The House Judiciary Committee is scheduled to hold a hearing in Manhattan on Monday on crime in New York City and what it alleges are Bragg's "pro-crime, anti-victim" policies. The D.A.'s office, however, points to statistics showing that violent crime in Manhattan has dropped since Bragg took office in January 2022. https://justthenews.com/government/state-houses/newsom-stockpiles-2-million-abortion-pills-so-californians-can-access-them Newsom stockpiles 2 million abortion pills so Californians can access them after judge's ruling California Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom is stockpiling as much as 2 million misoprostol pills used to terminate a pregnancy – after a federal judge's ruling last week sought to halt the FDA's approval of another abortifacient, mifepristone. "We will not cave to extremists who are trying to outlaw these critical abortion services," Newsom said Monday in announcing his plan. "Medication abortion remains legal in California." Mifepristone is used in conjunction with misoprostol to terminate a pregnancy through 10 weeks of gestation, according to the FDA. Misoprostol still can effectively terminate a pregnancy when used alone, according to a National Institutes of Health study but the Food and Drug Administration has not approved it for abortions. The Biden administration is appealing the ruling from the Texas-based federal judge that brought mifepristone's status into question. The case is expected to be heard by the Supreme Court. https://bongino.com/15-days-to-slow-the-spread-ends-after-1120-days "15 Days to Slow the Spread" Ends After 1,120 Days https://dailycaller.com/2023/04/11/governor-shut-down-church-pay-fee-kentucky-andrew-beshear/ On Monday, Joe Biden signed a GOP-led resolution that brought the national emergency over the COVID-19 pandemic to an end. And just like that, “15 days to slow the spread” was over….. after 1120 days. As the New York Post reported: Biden signed the legislation behind closed doors on the eve of his trip Tuesday to Northern Ireland and the White House acknowledged the milestone without fanfare in a brief late-afternoon email that read: “On Monday, April 10, 2023, the President signed into law: H.J.Res. 7, which terminates the national emergency related to the COVID-19 pandemic.” The legislation drafted by Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) passed the House 229-197 in February, with a handful of Democratic supporters, and then the Senate 68-23 last month with about half of the chamber’s Democrats voting in favor. In January, the White House said that Biden would end both the national emergency and a separate public health emergency on May 11 after more than 1 million Americans died from the respiratory disease that originated in Wuhan, China. If the national emergency and the powers it afforded the government prevented even a single person from contracting COVID, the evidence has yet to be seen.

Randall Daniel, Theodore Roberts, and Sally O’Boyle sued in August 2020 after they received notices logging their attendance at Maryville Baptist Church’s Easter Service and informing them they must quarantine or face “further enforcement measures.” The group alleged Democratic Governor Andrew Beshear’s bans on religious gatherings and interstate travel violated their constitutional rights, which the Sixth Circuit affirmed in May 2020, according to court documents. On Monday, the Sixth Circuit upheld a district court ruling awarding the congregants $272,142.50 in attorney’s fees, rejecting the governor’s challenges. “I know a lot of people who are outraged that the TAXPAYER is on the hook for ANDY’S constitutional violation,” said Roberts in a tweet. “I share this outrage, but this outrage must be aimed at Beshear. If the people of Kentucky want to quit being taxed to pay for these court judgments, Kentucky MUST elect a governor who will actually follow the constitution.” Republican Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie responded to the ruling on Monday, congratulating attorney Chris Wiest and TJ Roberts on the win. The Sixth Circuit previously barred the governor from enforcing a prohibition on in-person services, disputing the lower court’s ruling which upheld the ban. “[The] unexplained breadth of the ban on religious services, together with its haven for numerous secular exceptions, cannot co-exist with a society that places religious freedom in a place of honor in the Bill of Rights: the First Amendment,” the court found in May 2020. “Here in Kentucky, there are so many different ways to worship, and all but one church in this commonwealth are engaged in them,” Beshear said after the initial lawsuit was filed, according to WDRB. “You can do it virtually. You can do it in a drive-in service, and in many states they are not allowing those drive-in services like we are. So this work — this opportunity to worship, which is so important, is still there. We just ask people to choose one of the versions that doesn’t spread the coronavirus, and I think that’s what our faith calls us to do.” Beshear did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Mason Herring splits with his wife due to his cheating, but the couple attends counseling to work on their relationship. During a session, Herring's wife reveals she is pregnant with their third child, which Herring is not happy to hear. He has plans to leave his wife for his mistress and now fears appearing to be a "jerk" for leaving his pregnant wife.  So, he tries to slip an abortion inducing drug into his wife's drinks. First, Herring brings his wife a glass of water and insists that she drink it to "stay hydrated." She becomes violently ill, ending up in the hospital for her symptoms. The woman becomes suspicious of Herring and begins keeping the drinks he offers her, like orange and cranberry juice, as evidence instead of drinking it.  Herring's wife then installs surveillance cameras to catch Herring in the act and searches through the trash, discovering a prescription for Cyrux, a medication that contains Misoprostol — a drug that induces abortions. Two days later, the woman catches Herring on video dumping a powder into a glass of water for her. She calls police, who arrest Herring for assaulting a pregnant person and assault-force induction to have an abortion.  Joining Nancy Grace Today: Darryl Cohen - Former Assistant District Attorney (Fulton County, Georgia) Former Assistant State Attorney (Florida), Defense Attorney, Cohen, Cooper, Estep, & Allen, LLC, CCEAlaw.com, Facebook: "Darryl B Cohen", Twitter: @DarrylBCohen  Dr. Angela Arnold - Psychiatrist, Atlanta GA, AngelaArnoldMD.com, Expert in the Treatment of Pregnant/Postpartum Women, Former Assistant Professor of Psychiatry, Obstetrics and Gynecology: Emory University, Former Medical Director of The Psychiatric Ob-Gyn Clinic at Grady Memorial Hospital, Voted "My Buckhead's Best Psychiatric Practice of 2022" Justin Boardman - Former Special Victim's Unit Detective, West Valley City (Utah), Author: "I Was Wrong: An Investigator's Battle-cry for Change Within the Special Victims Unit", JustinBoardman.com, Twitter: @boardman_train Dr. William Morrone - Chief Medical Examiner, Bay County Michigan, Author: "American Narcan: Naloxone & Heroin-Fentanyl Associated Mortality", RecoveryPathwaysLLC.com  Dave Mack – Crime Online Investigative Reporter See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
